The National Transportation Safety Board has released a
preliminary report on a Colorado plane crash that killed five people from
Etowah County.
Pilot 48 year old James "Jimmy" Hill, 40 year old Katrina
Barksdale, her two sons, Kobe, 11, and Xander, 8, and her nephew 14 year old
Seth McDuffie, were killed in the crash March 22.
The report states that Hill was cleared to land in Montrose,
Colo. when he told air traffic control he was in a spin and was trying to
recover.
There was a light rain but 10 mile visability at the time. A
complete report is expected to be released in about a year.
